Spirit System:
Spirit System initially began in 2013 as a recording project between Laurie Ruroden (vox, bass, efx) and Eric Gilstrap (gtrs, synth, efx) to reconnect as songwriters after the breakup of their former noise pop band, Telltale. After relocating from Brooklyn, New York to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in the spring 2014 they had fleshed the band out by adding another member, Gary Guthrie (drums, smplr, synth). Spirit System then took a break from regional touring to begin recording their debut album with Jeff Berner (Psychic TV, NAAM) at GaluminumFoil Productions in Brooklyn. At the beginning of the summer 2015, Spirit System released the EP "Afterblume", 4 tracks containing the outtakes of their debut full length, "Nightfalling", which was released March 2016.

1970s Film Stock:
Eddie Garcia's solo guitar freakout. Serious pedal worship - a fuzzy wash of guitars that stagger between beauty & chaos. Experimental and shoegaze sound collages rub up against finger-picked melodies and sustained drones. 1970s Film Stock is often described as "cinematic," with looping ambient textures, improvisation, skewed hooks, and live composition that work as a soundtrack of a lost film.
